This website displays the creatures I have encountered in my Monster Hunter "journey." Monster hunter is a fantasy-themed action role-playing game (ARPG) that has you create a player character/avatar to represent yourself in game. The main objective of the game is to hunt the creatures that inhabit the world of Monster Hunter. In this world the people live a "give" and "take" type of world; the people learn to coexists with the monsters. Though the creatures may cause an embance to this coexistence whcich is why the whole monster hunter occupation exists. There's a active government in the Monster Hunter world to regulate and keep tabs on monsters that cause an embalance to nature, face extinction and prevent poaching of any kind. Their even responsible for recording undocumented creatures discovered. The Hunter's Guild are located nearly all over the world paying and hiring neww The government also pays the hunter for his deeds in hunting monsters issued by the Guild and civilians requests approved by the Guild. However the occupation of hunter is not for everyone; the person has to above average physical capabilities and of certain height to be in this line of work. The reasons are that monsters range from harmful to life ending and can range from varying sizes. There even monsters that can be considered to have god-like abilities like causing natural disasters or misfortune. Which why the government only hire people with these characteristics; above average or higher physical capabilities and certain height. The Hunter's Guild will hire anybody that match these criteria even ex criminals; ex criminals will be pardon for their past offenses but not current. They are always hiring new and capable people for occupation.

Small Monsters
Large Monsters
Elder Dragons
Hornetaur
A Vespoid-like monster with a thick shell. Easily damaged, there are rarely any usable materials left to harvest from them once killed. But if you could sap their health gradually...Like the related Vespoid, they are highly susceptible to poison. Due to their small size, many find them difficult to hit directly.
Kill Count: 216

Vespoids are wasp-like insects roughly the size of a housecat. They have barbed stingers at the end of their abdomens, and fly using three pairs of wings.

Bnahabra
Bnahabra are similar to the Vespoid from previous generations. Bnahabra fly in a similar fashion and can also cause paralysis with their stingers. There are various subspecies of the Bnahabra which vary between the regions, each with distinctly colored wings. Bnahabra are often seen attached to the sides of the walls seemingly lifeless, until a hunter is close enough - then they fly away or attack.

Altaroth
Insects that widely inhabit many areas. Noted for absorbing fruit, mushrooms and honey, then carrying them back to their nest. Materials can thus be collected from their swollen abdomens, whose color is related to what is being carried. An interesting note about the Altaroth is that they can absorb mushrooms, berries, and other resources into the sacs on their backs. When hunters kill an Altaroth in this state, they will drop a shiny item depending on what they have absorbed. This can be taken to an advantage; if a hunter were to intercept and collect the resource the Altaroth was heading for, before the Altaroth reaches their target, the Altaroth will move on, and can be forced to consume one specific type of plant or mushroom. The hunter can then kill the Altaroth to gain the item dropped. The swelling of their sacs is indicated by different colors depending on what they have eaten.
